In this gift guide are ideas to elevate a Bible study, bring inspiring stories of hope to your congregation, and life-changing experiences for you, your family, and friends.
Of the Christmas gifts we receive each year, few truly change a life — the toy breaks, the clothing fades, and the gadget gathers dust in a drawer.
From Kansas to Nepal, Indiana to Indonesia, our workers — teachers, peacebuilders, church planters, and trauma-healing facilitators — have left schools, careers and comforts to walk alongside communities in some of the most challenging places on earth.
Your gift provides practical, on-the-ground resources: a van for traveling to placements, training workshops for congregations facing conflict, shelter for migrating peoples, and so much more.
Generations of young adults have had their horizons widened and their faith deepened through a term of Christ-centered service — you might be one of them.

Looking for a different kind of family vacation? SOOP offers flexible service terms (a week to several weeks) at 60 locations across the U.S. and beyond. Open to individuals ages 25+ and families of all ages.
